AW: Re: Lag 720p/1080p - Hardware problem?
Hello.
I'm not sure if the HD 5450 is enough if it comes to 3D Video playback, but that is something for the future, not for now.
Hello.
Oh, you can be sure, the HD5450 is, without any doubt, able to handle 1080i content easily. I've used one for more than a year in my HTPC and all 1080i Channels are playing fine using DXVA. The only reason that I don't use it any more is the CUVID Codec witch requires an Nvidia GPU. That's why I now use a GT430...Please also note that I do not think the HD5450 is sufficient for 1080i playback (sure will work for 1080p) so before buying make sure you will not play this kind of content in the future (that is HDTV).
